ARTICLE V

EQUITY COMPENSATION PLANS

5.01 Stock Options.

(a) First Data and Western Union shall take any and all action as shall be necessary or appropriate, including without limitation, approval of the provisions of this Article V by the Western Union Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee of the First Data Board of Directors, so that options issued under the First Data Corporation 1992 Long Term Incentive Plan, the 2002 First Data Corporation Long Term Incentive Plan, the First Data Corporation 1993 Director’s Stock Option Plan, the Concord EFS, Inc. 1993 Incentive Stock Option Plan, the Concord EFS, Inc. 2002 Stock Option Plan, and the Star Systems, Inc. 2000 Equity Incentive Plan (collectively, the “First Data LTIPs”) to purchase First Data Common Stock (“First Data Stock Options”) held at the close of business on the Distribution Date by current and former employees and directors of First Data and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates who will not be Transferred Employees and Business Employees whose employment terminated prior to the Distribution Date (or their respective transferees) shall be replaced pursuant to the terms of the First Data LTIPs with an adjusted First Data Stock Option with an adjusted exercise price and a substitute option issued under The Western Union Company 2006 Long Term Incentive Plan or The Western Union Company 2006 Non-Employee Director Equity Compensation Plan (collectively the “Western Union LTIPs”) to purchase Western Union Common Stock (a “Western Union Stock Option”). Such replacement will be implemented in a manner such that immediately following the Distribution (i) the number of shares relating to the adjusted First Data Stock Option will be equal to the number of shares of First Data Common Stock subject to such option immediately prior to the Distribution, (ii) the number of shares subject to the substitute Western Union Stock Option will be equal to the number of shares of Western Union Common Stock that the option holder would have received in the Distribution had the First Data Common Stock subject to the option represented outstanding shares of First Data Common Stock, and (iii) the per share option exercise price of the original First Data Stock Option will be proportionally allocated between such separate stock options based upon the relative per share trading prices of First Data Common Stock and Western Union Common Stock immediately after the Distribution (determined as described below), with the intention that such adjustment and substitution satisfy the requirements of Section 424 of the Code


and avoid treatment as non-qualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code. For purposes of this Agreement, the per share price of First Data Common Stock immediately after the Distribution shall be the per share closing price on the Distribution Date of such stock trading “with due bills” less the per share closing price of Western Union Common Stock trading on a “when issued” basis, and the per share price of Western Union Common Stock immediately after the Distribution shall be the closing price per share of such stock on the Distribution Date trading on a “when issued” basis. Each adjusted First Data Option and substituted Western Union Option adjusted from or substituted for an original First Data Option described in this Section 5.01(a), when combined, will in the exclusive and sole discretion of the Compensation Committee of the First Data Board of Directors preserve the intrinsic value of such original First Data Option, and each will preserve the ratio from the original option of the exercise price to the fair market value of the stock subject to the option. Fractional shares shall be adjusted or compensated by First Data as appropriate in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee of the First Data Board of Directors.

(b) First Data and Western Union shall take any and all action as shall be necessary or appropriate, including without limitation, approval of the provisions of this Article V by the Western Union Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee of the First Data Board of Directors, so that First Data Stock Options held at the close of business on the Distribution Date by a Business Employee, other than a Business Employee whose employment terminated prior to the Distribution Date, and each First Data Stock Option held by a director of First Data who will become a director of Western Union on or before the Distribution Date (or their respective transferees) will, pursuant to the terms of the applicable First Data LTIP and the applicable Western Union LTIP and this Agreement, be replaced with a substitute Western Union Stock Option issued under the Western Union LTIPs, with the intention that such substitution satisfy the requirements of Section 424 of the Code and avoid treatment as non-qualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code. Each such substitute option will in the absolute discretion of the Compensation Committee of the First Data Board of Directors preserve the intrinsic value of the original First Data Stock Option for which it is substituted and the ratio in the original option of the exercise price to the fair market value of the stock by adjusting the number of shares purchasable and the exercise price, based on a comparison of the per share trading price of First Data Common Stock immediately prior to the Distribution (determined as described below), which includes the value of Western Union, and the per share trading price of Western Union Common Stock immediately after the Distribution (determined as described in Section 5.01(a)). For purposes of this Agreement, the per share trading price of First Data Common Stock immediately prior to the Distribution shall be the per share closing price on the Distribution Date of such stock trading “with due bills.” Fractional shares shall be adjusted or compensated by First Data as appropriate in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee of the First Data Board of Directors.

(c) With respect to substituted Western Union Stock Options held by current and former employees and directors of First Data and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates (and their respective transferees), Western Union shall engage Salomon Smith Barney or such other entity as shall be designated by Western Union (with the consent of First Data, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld) to act as recordkeeper for such


substituted Western Union Stock Options (including the responsibility to take customary actions with respect to broker-assisted cashless exercise thereof). If the exercise of such substituted Western Union Stock Options is made pursuant to a broker-assisted cashless exercise through the recordkeeper in accordance with the regulations of the Federal Reserve Board, then immediately after such exercise, the recordkeeper shall sell the number of shares necessary for the following payments to be remitted (which may be all the shares): (i) to the issuer of the option, the exercise price, and (ii) to the employer of the option holder, the employee’s share of income and payroll taxes. Thereafter, there shall be remitted to the option holder: (i) the balance of the proceeds from the sale of all shares or (ii) the remaining whole shares and cash for any fractional shares, as applicable.

5.02 Restricted Stock. First Data and Western Union shall take any and all action as shall be necessary or appropriate, including without limitation, approval of the provisions of this Article V by the Western Union Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee of the First Data Board of Directors pursuant to the terms of the applicable First Data LTIP and the applicable Western Union LTIP and this Agreement, so that current and former employees and directors of First Data and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates who will not be Transferred Employees, and Business Employees whose employment terminated prior to the Distribution Date, (or their respective transferees) and who on the Distribution Date hold shares of First Data Common Stock issued under one or more First Data LTIPs that are subject to restrictions on sale and transfer (“First Data Restricted Stock”) receive shares of Western Union Common Stock that are subject to restrictions on sale and transfer (“Western Union Restricted Stock”) in connection with the Distribution under the applicable Western Union LTIP based upon the number of shares of First Data Restricted Stock they hold. In the case of any outstanding First Data Restricted Stock awards which vest based on attainment of a specified share price of First Data Common Stock, such price targets shall be adjusted based on the relative per share trading prices of First Data Common Stock and Western Union Common Stock immediately after the Distribution (determined as described in Section 5.01(a)). First Data and Western Union shall take any and all action as shall be necessary or appropriate, including without limitation, approval of the provisions of this Article V by the Western Union Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee of the First Data Board of Directors pursuant to the terms of the applicable First Data LTIP and the applicable Western Union LTIP and this Agreement, so that the shares of First Data Restricted Stock held by Business Employees, other than Business Employees whose employment terminated prior to the Distribution Date, and any First Data director who will become a director of Western Union on or before the Distribution Date, (or their respective transferees) will be replaced with substitute shares of Western Union Restricted Stock issued under the applicable Western Union LTIP. Each such substitute Western Union Restricted Stock award will in the absolute discretion of the Compensation Committee of the First Data Board of Directors preserve the intrinsic value of the original First Data Restricted Stock award for which it was substituted by adjusting the number of restricted shares based on a comparison of the per share trading price of First Data Common Stock immediately prior to the Distribution (determined as described in Section 5.01(b)), which includes the value of Western Union, and the per share trading price of Western Union Common Stock immediately after the Distribution (determined as described in Section 5.01(a)). In the case of any outstanding First Data Restricted Stock awards which vest based on attainment of a specified share price of First Data Common Stock, such price


targets of the replaced Western Union Restricted Stock shall also be adjusted based on a comparison of the per share trading price of First Data Common Stock immediately prior to the Distribution (determined as described in Section 5.01(b)), which includes the value of Western Union, and the per share trading price of Western Union Common Stock immediately after the Distribution (determined as described in Section 5.01(a)). All employment with both First Data and Western Union shall be taken into account for purposes of determining when the restrictions on the sale and transfer of such shares lapse. Such substitution and replacement shall be intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 424 of the Code and avoid treatment as non-qualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code. Fractional shares shall be adjusted or compensated by First Data as appropriate in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee of the First Data Board of Directors.

5.03 Restricted Stock Units. First Data and Western Union shall take any and all action as shall be necessary or appropriate, including without limitation, approval of the provisions of this Article V by the Western Union Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee of the First Data Board of Directors pursuant to the terms of the applicable First Data LTIP and the applicable Western Union LTIP and this Agreement, so that current and former employees and directors of First Data and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates who will not be Transferred Employees and Business Employees whose employment terminated prior to the Distribution Date (or their respective transferees) will have each of their First Data Restricted Stock Units (as defined in the First Data LTIPs) replaced with an adjusted First Data Restricted Stock Unit and a substitute Western Union restricted stock unit issued under the Western Union LTIPs (“Western Union Restricted Stock Unit”). The number of Western Union Restricted Stock Units issued in replacement for such First Data Restricted Stock Units shall be calculated so that immediately following the Distribution (i) the number of First Data Restricted Stock Units will be equal to the number of First Data Restricted Stock Units held by the participant immediately prior to the Distribution, and (ii) the number of Western Union Restricted Stock Units will be equal to the number of shares of Western Union Common Stock that the holder of the restricted stock unit would have received in the Distribution had the First Data Restricted Stock Unit represented outstanding shares of First Data Common Stock. First Data and Western Union shall take any and all action as shall be necessary or appropriate, including without limitation, approval of the provisions of this Article V by the Western Union Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee of the First Data Board of Directors pursuant to the terms of the applicable First Data LTIP and the applicable Western Union LTIP and this Agreement, so that each First Data Restricted Stock Unit held by a Business Employee (or their respective transferees), other than a Business Employee whose employment terminated prior to the Distribution Date, will be replaced with a substitute Western Union Restricted Stock Unit issued under the applicable Western Union LTIP. It is intended that each substitute restricted stock unit will in the sole and absolute judgment of the Compensation Committee of the First Data Board of Directors preserve the intrinsic value of the original First Data Restricted Stock Unit for which it was substituted by representing a number of Western Union Restricted Stock Units based on a comparison of the per share trading price of First Data Common Stock immediately prior to the Distribution (determined as described in Section 5.01(b)), which includes the value of Western Union, and the per share trading price of Western Union Common Stock immediately after the Distribution (determined as described in Section 5.01(a)). Such


substitute Western Union Restricted Stock Units will take into account all employment with both First Data and Western Union, and their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates, for purposes of determining when the restricted stock unit vests. Such substitution and replacement shall be intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 424 of the Code and avoid treatment as non-qualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code. Fractional shares shall be adjusted or compensated by First Data as appropriate in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee of the First Data Board of Directors.

5.04 Approval and Terms of Equity Awards. By its approval of this Article V, the Board of Directors of Western Union, as issuer of substitute and replacement awards provided hereunder, and the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of First Data, as sole shareholder of Western Union, hereby adopt and approve, respectively, the issuance of the substitute and replacement options and awards provided for herein. Except as set forth above, the terms of the First Data LTIPs and of the outstanding equity compensation awards held by participants under the First Data LTIPs and this Agreement and the substitute Western Union equity awards shall be subject to the terms of such plans and applicable award agreements (including but not limited to, the First Data LTIP provisions which require full vesting upon a change of control of First Data), except that references in such outstanding substitute and replacement Western Union awards to “Board” and “Compensation Committee” shall mean the Board and Compensation Committee of Western Union and references to the “Company” as issuer of securities thereunder and as the holder and transferee of unvested shares of Western Union Restricted Stock shall mean Western Union. Notwithstanding the foregoing, substitute awards made under the Western Union LTIPs pursuant to Western Union’s obligations under this Agreement shall take into account all employment with both First Data and Western Union, and their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates, for purposes of determining when such awards vest and terminate. Such substitution shall be intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 424 of the Code and avoid treatment as non-qualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code.

5.05 Responsibility for Tax Withholding, Reporting, and Social Insurance Contributions. First Data and Western Union agree that, unless prohibited by applicable law, (a) First Data shall be responsible for all tax withholding and reporting obligations and shall pay the employer’s share of any social insurance tax obligations that arise in connection with the grant, vesting, exercise, transfer or other settlement of the substitute and replacement awards held by current and former employees and directors of First Data and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates who will not be Transferred Employees (or their respective transferees), (b) Western Union shall be responsible for all tax withholding and reporting obligations and shall pay the employer’s share of any social insurance tax obligations that arise in connection with the grant, vesting, exercise, transfer or other settlement of the substitute and replacement awards held by Business Employees (or their transferees). First Data and Western Union agree to enter into any necessary agreements regarding the subject matter of this Section 5.05 to enable First Data and Western Union to fulfill their respective obligations hereunder, including but not limited to compliance with all applicable laws and regulations regarding the reporting, withholding or remitting of income and social insurance taxes.


5.06 No Change of Control. The Distribution will not constitute a “change of control” for purposes of First Data equity awards which are outstanding as of the Distribution Date.

5.07 Establishment of Western Union Equity Plans. Effective as of the Distribution Date, Western Union shall establish the Western Union LTIPs to provide for awards which may include the following: (i) stock options (both qualified and nonqualified), (ii) stock appreciation rights, (iii) restricted stock awards, (iv) restricted stock unit awards, (v) phantom stock units, (vi) performance grants and (vii) bonus awards, including, without limitation, the awards provided for herein. In exercising its power and authority hereunder with respect to replacement and substitute stock-based awards held by current and former employees (other than Transferred Employees) and directors of First Data, its Subsidiaries and Affiliates (and their respective transferees), Western Union shall (i) act in good faith and (ii) cooperate with and give due regard to any information provided by First Data. In addition, with respect to such replacement and substitute stock-based awards, Western Union shall not, without the prior written consent of the First Data Compensation Committee, take any discretionary action to accelerate vesting of any such awards.

First Data will provide to Western Union copies of any records available to First Data to document such service, plan participation and membership and cooperate with Western Union to resolve any discrepancies or obtain any missing data for purposes of determining benefit eligibility, participation, vesting and calculation of benefits with respect to such Domestic Business Employees. With respect to retaining, destroying, transferring, sharing, copying and permitting access to all such information, First Data and Western Union shall each comply with all applicable laws, regulations and internal policies and each party shall indemnify and hold harmless the other party from and against any and all liability, claims, actions, and damages that arise from a failure (by the indemnifying party) to so comply with all applicable laws, regulations and internal policies applicable to such information.

First Data shall also retain copies of all confidentiality and non-compete agreements with any Business Employee in which First Data has a valid business interest. With respect to retaining, destroying, transferring, sharing, copying and permitting access to all such information, First Data and Western Union shall each comply with all applicable laws, regulations and internal policies, and each party shall indemnify and hold harmless the other party from and against any and all liability, claims, actions, and damages that arise from a failure (by the indemnifying party) to so comply with all applicable laws, regulations and internal policies applicable to such information.
